Thatcher Demko has agreed to terms on an entry-level contract with the Vancouver Canucks, TSN is reporting via Bob McKenzie.
He's expected to officially sign later Wednesday afternoon.
The second-round draft selection spent three seasons at Boston College. He was nominated for the Hobey Baker Award in his final season, winning 27 games - earning a shutout in 10 of those starts - and stopping pucks at a .935 rate as a junior starter.
The San Diego, Calif., native towers at 6-foot-4, and has elite athleticism for the position.
